> True, it's apples/oranges comparison, but I'm not convinced that inequality is the source of our woes, but very likely amplifies it.

It’s not income inequality, it’s opportunity inequality. Which manifests itself as income (/wealth) inequality, so that’s the proxy most people use.

Once you lose the feeling of others being in your tribe and that they might also be interested in looking out for you, it’s very, very difficult to regain that. Even worse is once members of the tribe start assuming others are part of an enemy tribe.
How does it pull from and push to a Git remote?

(I wouldn’t have thought that there was any good option. If you reject the use of an intermediary proxy, then I think the only two options are: to do something forge-specific, which is rather limiting and quite contrary to the purport of the project; or to use the smart protocol over HTTPS, but that’s going to be CORS-blocked, to say nothing of the security aspect probably being a pain—if I recall correctly, GitHub for one now requires you to use a token for authentication over the HTTPS protocol, so it’s never just a single step any more.)
Great book, but it was not about cryonics. You can move the "mind" into a computer. And those computerized minds start to create a world of their own. People outside can only watch this chaotic activity and grant more resources. Simply because it is truly entertaining.

The parent mentions "the efforts of sub-groups in our societies attacking the foundations of trust" so it seems pretty clear to me there's an assignment of blame to someone there. There's a bit of sarcasm in my reply in that, usually, when I see people doing that in regards to this topic, they're not referring to the sort ruinous, trust-eviscerating projects I cited, but rather to things like "misinformation" or "divisive rhetoric" which, when properly viewed in context, are more symptoms than causes.

The words could be changed from "sign on to a social compact" to "sign on to this particular social compact" to be more accurate because chances are good that folks who don't wear masks probably ascribe to any number of other social compacts. Living in a diverse, heterogenous society means living within a variety of social compacts formed from differing cultural perspectives and different individual risk evaluations.

If one would not live in a place without high mask compliance, why would one live in a place without 100% mask compliance? If not 100%, what is the number? Why stop at mask compliance?
I worked on a seaplane dock as a teen. Radial engines use AvGas which is high octane gasoline. Turbine engines use Jet A which is a kerosene blend fuel.

Most de Havilland Beavers in my area are still radial engines due to the nostalgia that sells to tourists. Most companies have converted their de Havilland Otters to a turbine engine. I have seen turbine Beavers from other areas. You can visually identify the engine by the shape of the plane nose. A radial engine plane has a big, round, blunt nose and sounds like an idling drag racer with a deep glug glug glug noise. A turbine engine plane has a pointy nose and sounds like the high pitch whine of a jet engine.
In what world would manual counting have less paper trail?

What is for sure - with voting machines, there is less validation. Hand counting means - all ballots are counted always (by volunteers with all parties invited) - whereas voting machines means a spot-test (in some states), and only a full manual count is when a recount is demanded.

All this to say - I think Dominion did a thorough job - but this all only happened because the election was close. What about those where the election isn't "close"?
> Why not use a different software suite altogether?

If having a print button and a janky pre-print dialog box is worth 200$/year to you then by all means, move your entire workflow to Adobe. Or better yet - put those 200$ on a bug bounty to implement it - I'm sure somebody would jump on it.

> I love the classic response here:

This is the exact same response as you'd get from Adobe if you requested a feature from them. If a request doesn't carry a direct profit incentive for a company, they will completely ignore it - and if you worked a lot with Adobe software you would be very familiar with that.

Yet somehow, people get more mad when small FOSS dev teams don't jump on their pet peeves immediately than when multi-million-dollar companies that they pay hundreds of $ ignore years of pleading by even rather large players in the industry to implement some pretty basic things.

It's free software, not free dev time.

I think parent might have confused Germanium with Cadmium? I am no chemist. It could also require other more toxic substances to control reactions or act a carrier. The whole area around Sunnyvale is littered with toxic waste dumps from semiconductor manufacturing. [1] From [2], it says, "Some reactive intermediate compounds of germanium are poisonous", when then references [3] but I can't find the specific citation. I think Germanium is getting lumped in with other toxic chemicals used in semiconductor manufacturing like gallium arsenide, cadmium, etc.

at 750W, even with perfectly efficient energy transfer, you're looking at adding ~2.75 miles of range to your car every hour it's charging. That means during winter, if it's sunny, you might be able to charge your car all day and get 25 miles from it.

This behavior caused us to get blanket permissions for an extension I worked on in the past. We’d add a new permitted URL to support a newly integrated site, only to have the extension disable itself for all our customers, most of which wouldn’t even use that new integration.

While I understand the reasoning behind such an automated disabling, but it probably could be done better. Like delaying the update (and the disabling part) until the user made a choice.

Also very hard to inform users of this issue after it has occurred. Caused us so much trouble. Also a reason we went with the admittedly less safe blanket permission.

These are all valid worries, but they all have the same fundamental solutions as current products.

> if we can't get IoT 100% right, or even 90% right, how can we trust IoT with physical interfaces into our bodies?

Trust is a risk-reward calculus for any product, whether it's BCI, the microcontrollers in your car, or the (hopefully uninfected) produce in your supermarket. Many folks will find the BCI value outweighs the risks for some feature set that matters to them.

> And then what happens if the company who made your implant goes out of business? What do you do when those updates stop?

The economics have already turned, EV are invitable. The difference is that EV require completely new supply chain.

Demand for Lithium, Cobalt, Nickel is growing like crazy and that takes time. Battery factories are very hard to build, supply of chemical engineers are very hard to find. More time then what was required for the IPhone.

While I am a believer in 3-wheelers, that is not the IPhone moment. The simply fact is, the lifetime cost is better then a gas car. With gas cars being a legacy technology your resale value will be destroyed.

In a few years buying gas cars will seem silly.

I think you let what you like to see influence your view on this. The killer app is simply cars that are like cars we have but better because they are EV.
I always forget that fact...

I suggest looking outside of your filter bubble.

I agree with your conclusions on when one should wear a mask. I disagree with your conclusions about the intelligence, reasoning ability, or basic humanity of anti-maskers.

If you're someone who is flooded with reports of scientists waffling, of problematic reasons why people want you to wear masks, of health officials adjusting the rules du jour independent of defensible rationalizations, of higher-ups enforcing rules that they do not themselves follow, etc., and are NOT exposed to the (imho correct) arguments as to why mask-wearing is necessary and important... why wouldn't you conclude that it's a scam?

None of the conclusions about mask wearing can be made with 100% certainty. There really is a lot of bullshit going around on all sides. Even a fairly weak selection filter is enough to make perfectly rational actors come to opposite conclusions.

Our society is based on the implicit assumption that we all see more or less the same thing, so we can depend on (trust) that our sense of "normal" is shared, at least to some degree.

That assumption no longer holds. (Or rather, it holds for far fewer topics than it used to.)
Was this always the case for Peloton though? They could expand to allow their platform to work on other equipment later but there might be enough early adopters to support hardware sales to start.

While the BFD trends site is focused on personal developer blogs & trending posts, that one includes high-quality engineering team blogs too, like Cloudflare and Google Research. It's a bit simpler, and focuses simply on the latest posts rather than trending content, but it's worth a look.

I think you misunderstood my re-documenting comment. You are referring to assets. I'm referring to things like lessons learned and new systems developed. Proprietary organization is one of the simplest forms this takes. Reinventing even that is a waste of time.

I can also tell some of this is getting into specific case territory. :-) For example, sure, I might not bother referencing a simple component. But that's more like "just Google it" territory. No depth. I have lots of master frameworks that are very deep that I'd never want to repeat. DRY is a life saver there. Those files are also more likely to stay put...

For your moving links scenario, I use search alongside my organization hierarchy and the links double as search prompts. So that's not a problem. I think this is another case where the specifics matter.
Private Enterprise should not be confused with corporations. Especially not modern corporations and all the legal structures that encapsulate them.

Libertarian Private enterprise is more like LLC's, and partnerships than Corporations.

As to where removing the liability shields would encourage more beneficial behaviors from corporations?

You see hints of it all the time, anytime you see a situation where someone comments "if a person would have done X they would be in jail" well the Corporation is shielding the people that actually did the harm to society from consequences from their actions. Most of the time the actual bad actors simply move from one corporation to another continuing to inflict manage on society with no accountability because of those liability shield

you view it as "sociopathic", but viewing it that way is part of the problem, we have anthropomorphized corporations to were we treat them like people, punish them (the corporations) with fines and other actions but never punish the actual human actors responsible for the activity

I understand the need for some kind of limited liability in business, Strict Liability would likely cause very poor investment into private enterprise the problem is with corporations, especially publicly traded corporations we have created such a impenetrable liability shield around them that the incentive curve has shift so far towards "profit by any means" that the people in corporations are only punished when they DO NOT do bad things (i.e Pollute the environment, screw workers, etc) in chasing of more profit, and NEVER when they do those thing at most the corporation may pay a fine for doing it but the actual people responsible are never liable

I see this as an insanely dangerous game. IME most non-rowers won't touch an erg without significant instruction/encouragement as they're technique dependent. Any that do will quickly figure out from anyone who has rowed that C2 is the standard and everything else on the market is flaming garbage.

Add to this that I could recreate this business using the C2 API in a couple weeks and suddenly have a market of everyone who owns a C2 (all the people in this thread complaining that it doesn't support their machine) along with a literal potential customer list available through C2.
When the immune system creates antibodies, they basically hug the spike protein and build antibodies on every nook and cranny they can find a way to bind an antibody. These regions are called epitopes, and the immune system creates many antibodies for each invader.

If the spike protein mutates, it means that the structure of the spike is different. Obviously the spike can't change too much, because it needs to still be able to latch onto cells, and many changes would be irrelevant. Even if one antibody suddenly stops working because of a slight shift in the protein, there are other antibodies targeting different parts of the protein that would still be effective.

Only if the spike changes so dramatically that literally none of the antibodies you had before are relevant anymore. That's why it's not super expected that we'll get a version of the virus that these vaccines won't at least produce some antibodies against.

> If an academic finds a way to create a potent poison, it would be unethical to disseminate that knowledge without an antidote. Why would this be different?

Well, that metaphor doesn't apply here. The research shows that something we're already doing is potentially harmful. A more accurate metaphor would be discovering milk is actually poisonous as currently processed, and withholding the research for fear of disrupting the dairy industry (which the researcher happens to be a member of).

Your mistake is in presupposing the goodness of the thing the research is revealing to be potentially harmful. Hiding science that disagrees with your preconceived ideas is a dangerous path to take. You strengthen your position by whittling away the pieces that disagree with reality and updating your approach, not by denying reality and insisting you were right all along.

I still don't understand why publishers use these ads. At best they annoy your readers. At worst people leave your site and give revenue or eyeballs somewhere else.
